Heroes' Prison Chapter 64
"Meow~" Little White Cat immediately stretched out her small paw and clung tightly to Huang Yi, pursing her lips as her large eyes suddenly brimmed with mist, about to cry, clearly unwilling to part with him.
Huang Yi looked down and kissed Little White Cat on the head, saying affectionately, "Don’t cry, we’re only separating for a short while. This Holy Aura is very important for you. If you don’t absorb it, it will be difficult to see your mother again."
Upon hearing the word "mother," a conflicted expression instantly appeared in Little White Cat’s eyes. After hesitating for a while, she finally nodded with difficulty, agreeing to stay and absorb the Holy Aura.
"Little Wang, you stay here too. Protect my sister well, don’t leave her side, understand?" Huang Yi then turned his head and stroked Little Wang on the head.
"Woof woof!" Little Wang nodded immediately, looking solemn, as if he had been entrusted with a heavy responsibility.
"Alright! White Dragon King, please take me away from Bai Long Lake!" After giving his instructions, Huang Yi immediately addressed the White Dragon King, the air suddenly filled with the emotion of farewell. Since Little White Cat’s birth, he had never left her, but now he had to leave her for a time.
With a flap of his wings, the White Dragon King enveloped Huang Yi in a beam of white light.
The next moment, Huang Yi vanished from the bottom of the lake.
Little White Cat stared upward blankly, looking towards the spot where Huang Yi had disappeared. The person who loved her most, who had always protected her, who had fought for her with his life, had just vanished like the world around her had disappeared. Now, in the dark, isolated depths of the water, she could only wait for his return, wait for his familiar figure to reappear and embrace her again in his arms.
Two crystal-clear tears slowly slid down from her eyes.
There are many kinds of love, but the love of family is only truly understood upon parting.
...
The bright moonlight quietly shone upon the lake’s surface, and the night breeze carried the scent of fresh flowers. A lone figure stood by the shore, gazing into the center of the lake.
After a while, the figure turned and began striding northward.
This person was Huang Yi. He was now heading towards Dragon City, a place very far from here, and it would probably take him a long time to get there.
At present, he was already Level Nineteen and would soon reach Level Twenty. That’s when he would face the Beast King’s first Evolution, which would elevate his strength to a new level. However, he needed to plan for the long term. The previous Metamorphosis had been a profound lesson, and no one knew what might happen during an Evolution, so he must find an absolutely safe place to undergo the Evolution with peace of mind.
He was still in his human form at this time, as the Transformation Technique cast by Little White Cat could last three days. Compared to the form of the Beast King, he was more accustomed to the human form. He was indeed considering evolving into a human form at Level Twenty as it would make everything much more convenient.
Huang Yi ran tirelessly forward, his figure swiftly weaving through the woods, crossing streams and climbing over mountains, getting farther and farther from Bai Long Lake, with the dense jungle ahead seeming endless, with no sight of the Desolate Sands.
After running wildly for a long time, Huang Yi climbed to the top of another mountain and gazed down into the distance.
Suddenly, he saw a large road!
In the jungle below the mountain, a wide road was clearly visible, capable of accommodating several chariots running side by side. Every so often along the road stood a Magic Lamp, obviously a man-made thoroughfare!
It seemed that this road led to a city, and moreover, to a well-regulated city with a lord’s management; otherwise, no one would invest in building such a road.
Huang Yi decided to follow this road to the city first. He was now at Level 19 and hadn’t learned a single class skill. Yet in the city, there were skill trainers who could teach all kinds of skills.
Huang Yi leaped down from the mountain peak and quickly charged into the wide highway. The road here was even easier to travel, and his speed increased as the Magic Lamps flew by in a blur.
"Boom!" Just then, Huang Yi faintly heard something behind him from the direction of the mountain peak.
He immediately looked back and saw a shocking scene at the distant mountain peak!
Behind him, an area of the forest was rapidly collapsing as if some Ancient Behemoth from the wilderness was speeding through, knocking down all the trees in front with Brute Force. And this path of destruction was heading straight in Huang Yi’s direction!
Man Lie!
The name instantly flashed across Huang Yi’s mind!
It was the same situation when Man Lie had hunted him before, unstoppable in the forest, with trees violently crashing down!
Huang Yi had not expected Man Lie to catch up so quickly. After killing Barbaric Hammer in Wind Forest Stronghold, Man Lie had begun the pursuit; he had luckily managed to escape via a wide waterfall. But now, the creature had caught up again!
This vengeance for killing its offspring was indeed profound. Man Lie would pursue him relentlessly for thousands of miles!
Huang Yi dared not slow down and sprinted forward at full speed. Man Lie was far beyond his current ability to confront, and if caught, he would likely be torn to shreds in an instant, without any chance to fight back. At this moment, Huang Yi suddenly felt relieved that Little White Cat had stayed by Bai Long Lake. If it had continued to follow him, it would probably have met a grim fate!
Huang Yi was running with all his might, but even that seemed insufficient. Man Lie was nearly twice as fast, and the distance between them was rapidly closing.
The roaring behind him grew louder and louder; Man Lie was like a violent tank charging towards him, while the Magic Lamps around Huang Yi grew denser indicating the city was nearly in reach!
Once inside the city, Huang Yi would be safe. Apart from Dragon City, a free city, all other cities prohibited fighting. Any breach of this rule would result in capture by city guards or even death. Although Man Lie was strong, if this city was large enough and the guards were powerful enough, even Man Lie would not dare to act recklessly.
Very soon, Huang Yi could feel Man Lie’s presence; the beast was not far behind, and with every stride, the ground trembled slightly.
In front of him, the outline of the city emerged! The city was ablaze with countless lights, vibrant and bustling, extending up to the sky. The city gate was wide open and bright, the protective bridge not drawn up, clearly indicating that it was a city whose gates were open at all times!
Guarding the city gate, two rows of guards in shining Armor stood tall and formidable, broad-shouldered and powerful, each firmly holding a Long Spear. Even from a distance, one could sense the chill from the tips of their spears. These guards, with their mere appearance, were evidently skilled experts—only such guards could protect such a vast city!
